A very hardy early ripening blueberry developed in Minnesota. Produces medium size, sweet berries starting in mid-summer on a compact upright plant. This cold hardy plant matures to 3 ft. to 4 ft. tall and spread. The dark green foliage turns a pleasant orange in fall. A bush will yield 4 lb. to 7 lb. of fruit per year when mature. Berries are great for fresh eating, backing, jams and jellies.
